Powerfull, Slick, but Heavy
on September 21, 2016
Posted by: Ebonovic
In general this is a fine Vacuum, as compared to the popular alternative equivalent, it may be the right one for your.
PROs:
- Powerfull, there is no doubt that this unit has the power to move. Could argue that out of the box, it has more power then you can expect. On level 2, the unit pulls itself across the carpet, and really lives up to the "rocket" name
- LED Light, the vacuum head is very well lit, you are going to see where you are going and see the mess on the floor before it gets sucked up
- Suction power, on my initial usages it is cleaning the carpet and floor very good, without having to go over the area multiple times
- Appliance accessory is a GREAT bonus, designed to allow you to easily get underneath your appliances to get rid of the dirt, that can damage them, may be worth the purchase by itself.
- Easy to empty as well
- Corded, you won't run out of power while you are using it. and has a fairly long cord

Con:
- Corded, even though it is a plus for run-time, it is a downer that you just can't pick it up off the wall and go with it anywhere.
- Comes with 3 Small attachments, but can only store 2 of them directly on the unit, you will need to find a place to keep the third and not lose it.
- The unit overall is HEAVY, for a single hand use item, it does have some weight to it. Not heavy to bring from room to room, but while you are using it, you will feel it in your arm.
- Almost TOO powerfull. On level two, on my carpet, this unit was RACING across it... I had to knock down to level 1

Simple, Effective, Complete
on August 27, 2016
Posted by: Ebonovic
So historically I haven't usually found a charging dock that can accommodate the phone with the case. Being this also has a watch charger, worked out well.
* Complete with its own single power source. One adapter charges both the phone AND the watch. So bonus, you now have another phone and watch charger for travel or somewhere else
* Sturdy: There is pleanty of weight to keep the charger from falling over or being easily moved around or knocked over
* Adjustable height of the phone connector. What seems novel is what is key to work with probably every single case out there. Will fit any iPhone that uses the Lightning connector
* Large target area for the watch to mount and connect to. At least for the rubber sports bands you will need to tuck them under to keep the right angle for charge but it also helps support the watch

This machine is one of the quickest laptops I have ever used.
It has a very large screen, but when closed is very thin and lightweight.

The TouchScreen is a nice "touch". If you still use Optical Media (CD's and Blu-Rays) you will need an external add-on drive.

Big, Powerfull, Speedy
on May 20, 2016
Posted by: Ebonovic
Over the last 20 years, I have had several different WiFi access points and Routers. This one has been the most powerful one I have had to date, and so far, the performance (after setup), has been stellar and has really fixed some of the problems we had with the one it replaced.
Pluses:
- 8 Antennas, all adjustable to point and maximized your range
- FINALLY a router, that doesn't use a wall-brick adapter. Regular sized cord, to a relatively small adapter, and then tot he router.
- 8 hardline switch, which is FANTASTIC near a desk or a central hub
- USB connections to share a harddrive or just use as backup storage
- SPEED and Bandwidth. We have been able to utilize 3 iPads streaming full video with no problem... The wireless speed performance, caps at my broadband speed (AKA, it works as fast as my network can allow it to)
- 5ghz and 2.4ghz, is great. So some of my older tech can use the 2.4, and the newer tech can use the 5...

- 5ghz and 2.4ghz, is great. So some of my older tech can use the 2.4, and the newer tech can use the 5...
Cons:
- It is big, it will take up some desk space, or wall, or floor. There is no easy way to "hide" this one.
- Software setup for the most common user will be easy, straightforward. But for an advanced user (like myself, who has a separate dedicated NAT router), it will be a bit frustrating to get past some of the automatic adjustments... but once done, works great.

IF you have multiple people using video streams, and you still need to be able to shop on BestBuy.com at the same time... so far, this router/wifi seems to fit the bill very nicely to allow everyone in your home to connect.

"Perfect", with a catch
on January 28, 2016
Posted by: Ebonovic
from Tinley Park, IL
So... I would actually classify this TV as PERFECT, at the price point it is.
At $999 (price at Best Buy, during first week of availability). You simply are not going to find a better deal for what you get.
At $999 (price at Best Buy, during first week of availability). You simply are not going to find a better deal for what you get.
This is a full blown 4k unit (not some fancy upscaling). Has all the Smart Features, and apps (Netflix, YouTube, Amazon, Skype, and more). Since I was replacing a TV on the wall, this took about 10 minutes to unbox, add the bracket, up on the wall, and hooked up.
The picture is stunning.... I have found a couple 4k sources and it is just amazing. Looking forward to the 4K Blu-Ray player later this year, and more content available. Video games are great (played Forza 6 and it was just amazing).
So why Perfect "with a catch". Two main things stopped me from classifying this perfect all the way around. The MiniConnection breakout box, and Remote Control.
First the MiniConnection:
In my setup, I already have an AV receiver in the mix, that handles all my switching. So I have a single HDMI run through the wall, with power, a Coax (OTA antenna), and a hard-line network. I had to mount this Mini-Breakout box too the wall, behind the TV. As the cable wasn't long enough to run in the wall, and it is custom, and you can't connect the HDMI without it. I would have loved to seen a single adapter, that would have maybe been 6" that would have converted a standard HDMI to the MiniConnector port, and act as HDM1 all the time.

I would have loved to seen a single adapter, that would have maybe been 6" that would have converted a standard HDMI to the MiniConnector port, and act as HDM1 all the time.
Second the remote control:
I have a second Samsung TV in the room (right behind). The IR is bouncing off the Glass of this TV, and turning on the second one. There is no adjustment on either TV to work on a separate code base or in RF mode. I would hope that in 2016, and the price points... there would be an option on these TV's to pick at least a 2nd option for the remote. I am going to have to get creative on the 2nd TV, on how to limit the bounce effect for the IR.

You need more than one

Posted by: Ebonovic
from Tinley Park, IL
If you try to do anything with the DJI Phantom 3, you are going to need/want more than one battery. 20 minutes just isn't enough.
Not much to say about the batteries, other than they are solid and good quality. Only reason why not 5 stars, is simply the price. It is a steep cost, when you buy 3 of them.

Easy, Simple, and As Smart

from Tinley Park, IL
Absolutely the easiest thing to use.
Connect the Adapter to it, push the batteries down, walk away.
The hub is smart enough to charge the batteries in a proper order.
It will charge the battery with the MOST charge first, and then cycle through in order. This will allow you to get back up and flying in no time. Also allows you to charge all 4, without having to keep returning to change the connection (great for overnight charging)

Overall... GREAT Purchase
on October 5, 2015
Posted by: Ebonovic
from Tinley Park, IL
Selected this Onkyo unit for two main reasons: Dolby Atmos support, and had 6 HDMI inputs. So far this receiver has been very good. Two minor issues. I had some speaker wire touching one another, and during initial setup, the unit went into safety mode, but.. it didn't tell you it did. Took me a few hours to figure out. 2nd part, when calling Onkyo support.. while helpful, the information they gave me could have been easily posted on their website and manual... but wasn't. The onscreen display for "network" could be a bit better, but overall... solid

3D Ready
January 28, 2016
Per Samsung's site, it states as 3D Ready.
Which means you just need the other equipment (separate), glasses, Blu-ray player, and material source
Glasses are about $20 each.

Will the cameras work with solar cells and battery back-up? Do you offer solar cells? How much power/back-up would be necessary to power these cameras and charge the battery?
The power connect for the camera's are not USB style plugs, they are DC adapter plugs. They don't have a built in battery, and I have not seen one listed by the company as an option...
Solar Cells will need a battery. I am sure you could probably configure something that would work (such as a Goal-Zero with Solar), but the added cost x4 may not be worth the effort.
